Bioaccumulation of metals in aquatic insects of streams located in areas with sugar cane cultivation
(Sociedade Brasileira de Química, 2010)
Streams located in areas of sugar cane cultivation receive elevated concentrations of metal ions from soils of adjacent areas. The accumulation of metals in the sediments results in environmental problems and leads to ...
Mercury and selenium bioaccumulation in the smooth hammerhead shark, Sphyrna zygaena Linnaeus, from the Mexican Pacific Ocean
(Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2010)
We analyzed total mercury and selenium bioaccumulation in muscle tissue and cartilage fibers (fins) from smooth hammerhead shark, Sphyrna zygaena, caught off Baja California Sur, Mexico. In muscle tissue, the mercury ...

Metal Bioaccumulation by the Neotropical Clam Anomalocardia flexuosa to Estimate the Quality of Estuarine Sediments
(2021-01-01)
This investigation evaluated the bioaccumulation potential of the tropical estuarine bivalve Anomalocardia flexuosa for trace metals. To this aim, chemical and sedimentological analyses and bioaccumulation tests were ...
Bioaccumulation of some trace elements in the biota of the hydrothermal fields of the Guaymas Basin (Gulf of California)
(Boletín de la Sociedad Geológica Mexicana, 2009)
Data from the hydrothermally influenced Guaymas Basin of the Gulf of California are presented on the concentration and distribution of Ag, As, Au, Ba, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Hg, Mn, Pb, Sb, Se, and Zn in different tissues of ...
Implications on the Pb bioaccumulation and metallothionein levels due to dietary and waterborne exposures: The Callinectes danae case
(2018-10-30)
This study aimed to assess the bioaccumulation of Pb and induction of metallothionein-like proteins (MT) in Callinectes danae through single and combined dietary and waterborne exposures. Male C. danae individuals were ...
Redox dysregulation and bioaccumulation of copper in tilapia Oreocromis niloticus
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014-03-01)
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of two concentrations of copper (0.13 and 0.5mgL(-1)) on juveniles of tilapia, Oreocromis niloticus (Linnaeus), using two toxicological assays (I- copper exposure and ...
Bioaccumulation in freshwater crabs, Endosulfan accumulation in different tissues of Zilchiopsis collastinensis P. (Decapoda: Trichodactylidae)
(Springer, 2012-11)
We examined the bioaccumulation of α- and β-endosulfan and endosulfan sulfate in tissues from the crab Zilchiopsis collastinensis. There was more endosulfan accumulated in the hepatopancreas (from <2 to 467.8 ng g-1) than ...
Bioaccumulation and acute toxicity of As(III) and As(V) in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)
(2019-02-01)
The distribution of arsenic in the different tissues of tilapia fish is determined by the exposure time and the depuration rate. The mechanisms of toxicity/carcinogenicity depend on the arsenic species involved in the ...
